I had my eyes examined last week, age 77 with friends describing their cataract procedures and results to get me motivated. The optometrist said I have some "yellowing" of the lenses that you might call "pre-cataract" but nowhere near real cataracts calling for surgery. My acuity is down, so I will be buying new glasses. I will stay with progressives for daily wear and mono vision shooting glasses, that has worked for me for some time.
I know one dedicated shooter who had mono vision implants with her master eye at intermediate for pistol sights. I do this with shooting glasses but would not want it built in.
A shooter here went distance fixed focus and got a bad installation, so he has one eye very good and one marginal.
Another friend got a distance fixed focus toric (astigmatism correction) implant in the first eye treated, but multifocal in the other. She got Vivity in a last minute change like LL.
Frank made the first choice of intermediate fixed focus I have heard of.
I do not know of anybody selecting close fixed focus, although I am myopic and was built that way, wearing glasses for distance from grammar school until I went presbyopic.
